Thanks for the feedback guys, and glad to hear it will sound like a different car. I will not go O/R mainly because it would be WAYY too loud, especially since I already have the Magnapacks. I don't want every cop in town to know when I go WOT. Even though the midpipe will be catted, it will only have 2 cats as opposed to 4, and they will be high flow cats., so it will still sound good and loud.

go o/r with the midpipe, much louder. and you should just instal it yourself, it isnt that hard.

My wife can hear my car over a mile-and-a-half away when I'm WOT and I'm catted-X with the regular Magnaflow catback...

Trust me if you spend $400 for a catted midpipe you are going to kick yourself in the *** when you hear it. Not much of a difference from stock. Catted is for people that have to pass emmisions.

If you mean catted midpipe is only 1-2 hp different from O/R and quieter, then you would be correct...

Thanks Adam, it's good to know I'll notice some different with a catted H over stock. Here are a couple clips of Magnapacks w/ a catted H, sounds pretty damn loud to me:

Still, may sound even BETTER with O/R, I gotta here these in person somehow. [:@][:@]

I beg to differ... I know I have a 4V, but when I went from the stock H to the MRT catted H, it really woke the car up. To me, the sound is just perfect, DEEP and loud. Its slightly mellow when cruising and really great at WOT. I'm glad I didn't go O/R but thats just my opinion.
